netxen: remove netxen workqueue
o Remove private workqueue in the driver, move all
scheduled tasks to keventd workqueues. This makes
ports (interfaces) of same / different NIC boards
independent, in terms of their link watchdog and
reset tasks.
o Move quick checks for link status and temperature
in timer callback, schedule watchdog task only if
link status changed or temperature reached critical
threshold.
This also fixes deadlock when thermal panic occurs,
watchdog work was flushing workqueue that it was
sitting on.
